New Starters in the Employment Services Sector

SUMMARY

Hit the ground running; for the new starters in the Employment services

The coaching program is designed to assist your new starters (regardless of which program) to quickly gain an understanding of our employment services sector, and to gain skills and knowledge to help them work with the big numbers of participants entering into the programs.

Over 3 webinar sessions, Damien Opolski will comprehensively introduce staff to the programs and components that make up todays employment services industry. We will look at how employment services have evolved, and see what is required to achieve results in a rapidly changing labour market. We will look at the role of Services Australia in assessing and referring job seekers to programs, and the role of providers in developing the Job/Participation Plans that underpin services and ensure job seekers can meet their mutual obligation requirements.

Regardless of which program you are recruiting (or recruited) for, our New Starters- Introduction to Australia’s Employment Services Sector series will perfectly complement your own induction programs.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

The Intro to Employment Services coaching program has been developed by Damien Opolski. Damien has a background in delivering employment services and for a number of years managed the Departments Learning Centre. He has designed the program to help new starters better understand the context and concepts of the government’s  approach to employment services. It gives new starters an opportunity to better learn the ‘big picture’ and where they sit.

Session 1: An overview of today’s employment services programs – Tuesday 23 March 2021 at 3pm AEDT

looks at how services have evolved as the labour market has changed. We get an overview of today’s  suite of programs and how the programs are tailored to the different client groups. We look at the concept of Mutual Obligations and the role of employment providers in assessing and working with job seekers to meet the objectives of work, engagement and participation. We look at the future of services and how digital servicing is expected to play an increasing role for some job seekers, with enhanced face to face servicing for those likely to benefit from a case management service.

We look at the features which are common across all programs:

  • The role of Services Australia in triaging jobseekers to appropriate services through JSCI, ESAt and JCA assessments, and determining a job seekers MOR
  • We learn how some clients, such as vulnerable youth and those who are at risk of retrenchment, can access services
  • We look at the role of the provider in assessing vocational and non-vocational characteristics and negotiating the ‘contract’, or Job Plan, that underpins services.
  • We talk briefly about the role of service fees and outcome fees, and how the Departments assess provider performance for efficiency, effectiveness and quality.

Session 2: The Australian labour market –  yesterday, today and tomorrow – Tuesday 30 March 2021 at 3pm AEDT

looks at our evolving labour market and opportunities for our clients. We look at causes of unemployment and LTUE, and how the labour market has changed as a result of automation, efficiency and globalisation. We look at the data which tells us about the types of work that our clients tend to find. Most importantly, we look at trends in the labour market which inform us about the future of work and opportunities for our client base.

Session 3: Mutual Obligation Requirements and the Job Seeker and Targeted Compliance Frameworks – Wednesday 7 April 2021 at 2pm AEST

looks in more detail at MOR and compliance. We look in more detail at part-time and full-time MOR and how job seekers can meet their MOR. We introduce new starters to the TCF- the concept of demerits and the use of income support suspension to keep people engaged.

In addition, new starters have the opportunity to tap into Damien’s 35 years of experiences in the sector.

SUMMARY

Systematically addressing the reasons that job seekers put forward for not being gainfully employed goes hand in hand with being an Employment Consultant. But what do we do when the problem is much more complex? We need to become more curious about our participants. What are their barriers? How are these barriers affecting the job seeker’s life? How have they tried to address the barriers in the past? To be effective, we must explore, investigate, understand… engage with our participants.

Our webinar is aimed at front line staff and site managers who are experiencing this issue and would like to explore some workable options. It will discuss re-engagement strategies that really work.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

  • Identifying & addressing complex barriers
  • Understanding the reluctant participant
  • Building harmonious and sustainable relationships
  • Moving the reluctant participant towards employment (are we thinking outside of the box?)
  • Change Plan Action (what is it? how does it work?)

SUMMARY

We are communicating online now more than ever; not as many meetings or face to face client sessions. What does that mean for client engagement in employment services? It means that we need to be more thoughtful, creative and innovative in our service delivery.

Services that thrive take time out to think about new approaches, centred on how to make an impact. They regularly do this to stay that extra step ahead in the game.

Let Leonie show you how

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

  • New approaches to build stronger relationships with employers and support their employer branding.
  • Innovative ways to build confidence with your clients and increase their chances of employment.
  • Programs and initiatives for creating opportunities for employers and clients.

It aims to explore you and your organisation’s ‘fit’ with innovative strategies; and leave you with practical strategies that can be implemented right away.
